PREP DAY, GETTING DUCKS IN A ROW

 

We have a few things to do today.

- Get our suitcases down from the attic, and pack.

- Get Coco over to Steve 'n' Bex's later on today.

Check my lists ... all the usual things before going away for a few days.

I remember when I was going over to Australia (3 times) last year, I wasn't nearly as bothered with lists and so on!  Weird eh?

We are only going away for a few days, yet I'm feeling quite stressed.

Maybe it's because of the weather?  There's supposed to be fairly shitty weather flying down, and while we are in Christchurch.

Clearly, I just have more time to over think shit!

I'm not worried about the wet weather forecast once we are there ... we are hiring a car so can get around easily.  And we don't plan on going on big walks (think Stew's knee), so we will most likely be inside wherever we go.

I suppose we should get a move on. 

Once we have everything sorted, I am sure we will go out for lunch, which is our normal for the weekend now.

ONWARD...

9.35 am, and LOL, we have done most of our packing!  The only things left to do are to get Coco over to the kids house, and have lunch!

We had a very small frost this morning, such a difference from yesterday.  Don't get me wrong, it's still cold as F, but with the heat pump on we are fine inside.

  1. The main this to pack wlll be warm clothing! The high expected there is 9 so gloves, warm hat, scarf etc. Hopefully it won't be too bad but what a nuisance that it won't be lovely weather. Maybe the upside will be lovely warm fires inside pubs or something :)
